Damn. Imagine being able to cash in $111,000,000.

I'm more impressed over how our characters can jog around with all that gold in their duffel bag.

 

Heck, I'm surprised they don't get insta-wasted by getting crushed under the weight.

You can even go for a swim and not get weighed down.

Fun fact: I was always nervous about falling in the water while driving on the tracks for the objective, in fear that the gold will weight me down.

The casino heist

- You blow up 10 shipments carrying security equipment, and they don't suspect a thing at the casino that someone might be trying to do something to them

- Vault keycards. Why would a guard take a vault keycard with him to a bar or to a motel with a hooker? And also no one at the casino suspects a thing when their vault f*cking keycards have gone missing

- We have to steal our guns because apparently they could be traced but a hacking device stolen from the FIB? untraceable

You can go to your CEO office entrance on foot and get the option to enter your vehicle mod shop. If you go to your CEO office garage entrance in a car, you don't get the same option. So you have to pick a garage floor, wait for the tedious lift animation, get out of the car, get back into the car, then select modify vehicle.

The Diamond Casino and Resort is owned by Texans, yet you can't play Texas Hold'Em there.

IMO, I think that ingame prices and payouts aren't canon in-universe for most things.

 

Think how about the Z-Type costs 10 million in Story Mode, yet in Online it's a little shorter on 1 million.

 

Or, for a more extreme example, how the Avenger ingame costs more than 3 million yet Avon refers to it as a "50 million dollars worth of trirotor aircraft" in Setup: Avenger:

MFW I realized I can make more RP with golf than stunt races:

Why I am exactly giving both the Gunner and Driver a cut for? Info? I still have to source the weapons and escape vehicles myself!

 

The Driver only brings the escape vehicle to a mostly sh*tty location and that's it. The Gunner can act as a decoy, yet you still have to pay him for it beforehand.

 

For a point of comparison, in Story Mode, Gunners joined you in the Heist itself while Drivers would provide an escape vehicle by themselves.

 

Why I don't have the option of taking a risk and not hiring either a Gunner or a Driver? It's not like I need them for a succesful Silent and Sneaky or The Big Con approach and I could just steal a random car anyway.

That's R* tax to you

they are the masters of taxation, daily fees, Tony's laundering cut, buying supplies costs money, modifying import/export vehicles costs you 20k

When is the r* tax evasion dlc coming out?

not if you use the fire hose to fk with ppl, just like in GTA4 multiplayer :D, ppl would use the fire hose on other players that just came in the session and water them down until they leave

What I don't understand is why Rockstar doesn't just disable the weapons on a weaponized vehicle when the player goes in passive mode. Literally just disable the weapons option

Actually they did (before Casino update), but people would abuse passive mode in weaponized vehicles to get near their target, disable passive mode, and instantly kill them, this was commonly known as passive popping, was very annoying and there was no way to defend yourself from it. Disallowing weaponized vehicles to be used in passive mode is more fair to everyone.

I don't understand why I can't steal a vehicle off the street myself and then drive it to the casino myself and stash it somewhere while my teammate takes the other vehicle if we are doing big con. If I am giving a getaway driver a cut they should at least source and deliver the vehicles for me and park them outside the casino for when I am done robbing the place. How many people commit any sort of robbery and then run down the street past the cops to get to their getaway vehicles?

 

In the heist preps. Why am I stealing a Cargobob while I am flying one and why do I have to equip a scuba suit when I already have one on?

Using the Master Control Terminal I can't launch a mission for my Hangar just because one of my associates is playing an arcade game? Sheeesh! But I can steal supplies for the bunker? Some control we have here...

I wouldn't bother launching hangar missions from the MCT. Most of them require you to go to your hanger first, to pick up a plane that you don't even need.

I'm guessing whoever was tasked with taking sample pics for Social Club didn't get the memo as to the classes for some of the new cars, and had to guess...

 

 

Either that, or the Everon was originally classed as an SUV, and the Zhaba under Military, only to get moved to Off-Road later...

I recommend you go there and check the Itali GTO and the Tyrus

Have you tried to ignore the in game instructions and to swim there with your own suit? In Bolingbroke prep and Palomino prep you can simply ignore the instructions and Mission steps(yellow marker/driving bus).

I mean, its Dumbstar. In one moment they create masterpieces like RDR2 and GTA:SA, and then in another they either create/"manage" a clusterf*ck (GTAO) or proceeds to f*ck up said masterpieces (again, RDR2). Its one way or another.

 

There's a reason I don't like them anymore. Id Software all the way for me. Sometimes I wish Id gets to control GTA games, even if partially.

[Xiled]

Don't forget this is 12 YEARS after release as well. Oh no we're running out of keys and won't be able to sell it and make money? We suddenly care about gfwl and will remove it. Oops we also baked the multiplayer into gfwl and will no longer have multiplayer cause it relies on gfwl?

 

Oh well let's name it complete edition even though it's missing like 25% of it's music, no longer has multiplayer, will probably break mods again, and we won't actually improve the games performance. 

[junkpile]

Something really silly.. Ok, let's assume the driver of the car you stole, dead or alive somehow MAGICALLY knows you and puts a bounty on you.. 

 

Alright, for stealing? 

Issurances would cover this loss probably before replacing a car that got totally destroyed. 

We should get a bounty for destroying vehicles. 

I mean, no, but here's some R* logic

Maybe that npc driver also is part of the chosen ones in the Epsilon program, respawned and then placed a bounty on you?

[Kiethblacklion]

So my friend bought the car that turns into a submarine. Here is an example of Rockstar's logic. As a passenger in the car, after it converts to a submarine, I can exit the car, swim around and re-enter the car and nothing happens to the vehicle. However, if you have one of the doors broken off, as soon as you are in the water the car is destroyed. How is it not destroyed when I open the door to get in and out?

You dare question Dumbstar's logic? bruh

 

Everybody knows that F*'s logic is on-par with a toddler.

It's also funny how they slap a bounty on you that's more money than the car you stole costed. For example, I steal a Regina, then the driver proceeds to slap a 9k bounty on me. The Regina costs probably half that. lmao

[Yellow Dog with Cone]

Not only the game would sent me all the way up to Paleto Bay in order to raid The Lost MC's clubhouse (even when there's one literally next to the casino), also, since when The Lost MC use lowriders and sports bikes?

 

 

 

It's not like The Lost MC don't have their own custom vehicles on which to give chase to the player or anything, right?

 

 

 



 

 

R* doesn't even respect their own lore anymore.

and when you steal an expensive car like an oracle and the driver is a cheapskate and puts a $1k bounty on you.

or if you kill the driver and you get a bounty.

i always called that "getting a bounty from beyond the grave".
